Turbine motor with noise reduction system

Abstract

A turbine motor of the present invention includes a noise reduction system. The turbine motor includes a housing, a motor, a cooling fan, an air intake assembly, an exhaust assembly, an air intake motor cover assembly and a conduit. The motor is positioned in the housing and the motor has an air intake. The cooling fan is attached to the motor and is for cooling it. The air intake assembly is proximate to the cooling fan and is attached to the housing. The exhaust assembly is proximate to the cooling fan and is attached to the housing. The air intake motor cover assembly is proximate to the air intake on the motor and is attached to the housing. The conduit extends between the air intake assembly and the air intake motor cover.

What is claimed as the invention is:  
     
       1. A turbine motor with a noise reduction system comprising: 
       a housing;  
       a motor having an air intake and being positioned in the housing;  
       a cooling fan for cooling the motor and being attached thereto;  
       an air intake assembly proximate to the cooling fan and being attached to the housing;  
       an exhaust assembly proximate to the cooling fan and being attached to the housing;  
       an air intake motor cover assembly proximate to the air intake on the motor and being attached to the housing; and  
       a conduit extending between the air intake assembly and the air intake motor cover.  
     
     
       2. A turbine motor as claimed in  claim 1  wherein the air intake assembly includes a filter at the entrance to the air intake assembly. 
     
     
       3. A turbine motor as claimed in  claim 2  wherein the air intake assembly has air passageways and further including a plurality of soundproofing slabs in the air passageways. 
     
     
       4. A turbine motor as claimed in  claim 3  wherein the exhaust assembly has exhaust passageways and further including a plurality of soundproofing slabs in the exhaust passageways. 
     
     
       5. A turbine motor as claimed in  claim 4  wherein the air intake assembly and the exhaust assembly are a combined air intake and exhaust assembly. 
     
     
       6. A turbine motor as claimed in  claim 5  wherein the air intake motor cover assembly includes a cover, a first cover soundproofing slab attached to the cover and a cover passageway from the conduit to the motor air intake. 
     
     
       7. A turbine motor as claimed in  claim 6  further including a second cover soundproofing slab attached to the first cover sound proofing slab, the second cover soundproofing slab having a portion cut out thereof to form the cover passageway. 
     
     
       8. A turbine motor as claimed in  claim 6  further including a second cover soundproofing slab attached to the first cover sound proofing slab, the second cover soundproofing slab having a portion cut out thereof to form the cover passageway. 
     
     
       9. A turbine motor as claimed in  claim 8  wherein the motor air intake is at one end of the motor and the cooling fan is at the other end of the motor and the air intake and exhaust assembly is at one end of the housing and the air intake motor cover is at the other end of the housing. 
     
     
       10. A turbine motor as claimed in  claim 1  wherein the conduit is manufactured from PVC. 
     
     
       11. A turbine motor as claimed in  claim 1  wherein the motor is one of a single stage motor, a two-stage motor, a three-stage motor and a four-stage motor. 
     
     
       12. A turbine motor as claimed in  claim 1  wherein the housing is manufactured from steel. 
     
     
       13. A turbine motor as claimed in  claim 1  wherein the exhaust assembly has exhaust passageways and further including a plurality of soundproofing slabs in the exhaust passageways. 
     
     
       14. A turbine motor as claimed in  claim 13  wherein the air intake assembly and the exhaust assembly are a combined air intake and exhaust assembly. 
     
     
       15. A turbine motor as claimed in  claim 1  wherein the air intake motor cover assembly includes a cover, a first cover soundproofing slab attached to the cover and a cover passageway from the conduit to the motor air intake.
